The faces of the people sitting at the table in the private room at Golosone tell a lot about their feelings. They all seem uneasy, unable to fully grasp what is going on, a bit resentful to be in that situation.Doesn't he feel the same? This situation has been a nightmare from the first day. Tibor has not being clear about what type of help he needs, nor about the type of problems he is facing. He is a cell, alright, but why? The book Antonio has seen, and the notes, seem to point at vague horrible possibilities.For a second, as the waitress is bringing them the primo, antonio wonders whether it is better to keep out of this business. But it's just a second. Maybe, helping Tibor, will make him feel better about the death of Rachel, too. Anyway, Tibor is one of the few friends he has in Arkham... and, frankly, the possibility of returning to Italy is too good to be ignored.Antonio takes a deep breath: "Signori, i'l sorry to spoil your meal, but i feel it's time we start to discuss the grave matter that has brought us in this very restaurant. I have reason to believe that the trouble our Tibor is facing is greater than what we could imagine. Searching his room, I have found a number of notes pertaining occult events and theories. I assume it is a normal procedure, for an archeologist, to dabble in such matters before undertaking an expedition... at least to make sure that he will gather enough information to put those fantastic tales to rest.Nevertheless, I was shocked by the vile details included in some of the notes... nothing that could make me doubt of the bona fide of our good friend and colleague, mind you... but..."Antonio pauses for a second, looking his friends in the eyes."Well, iI have to confess that I have studied the connection between maths and occult belief myself, while taking care of my wife's farm. Never, in so many years, I have encountered stories so hazy and vile, details so sordid and squallid, as some of those that I have seen today. Even skimming them made me feel uneasy and sick.I think it is time for us to take a position. Tonight, we will have to share what information we possess about Tibor, decide what is the best course to undertake, and plan accordingly. I addition, if you have the same impressions I have about this whole business, I strongly suggest that the direct source of information we possess - and i mean books, notes, and what not - should not be shared between us. We should decide who is going to access them directly, and then he will have to present us with the important facts, taking the useless gruesome and sordid details away. I also suggest he should take a diary of our findings, so that, in case of necessity, we could present the authorities a written proof of our procedings and our findings. This, toccando ferro, could be useful for us, too.What do you say?"</blockquote>
